Team Info
Naxxar Lions are a professional football club from the town of Naxxar, Malta, and are longstanding competitors in the Maltese Premier League. Their home games are held at the Centenary Stadium, a national venue they use for top-flight matches. The club was founded in 1920, making it one of the older institutions in Maltese football, with its lion emblem representing strength and pride. The Lions have a rich history of yo-yoing between the top two divisions, experiencing several promotions and relegations over the decades. A key period for the club was their successful stint in the Premier League during the 1990s, where they consistently achieved mid-table security and developed a reputation for being a tough opponent. In recent seasons, Naxxar Lions have often found themselves in the lower half of the Premier League table, fighting valiantly to avoid the drop, with their campaigns defined by crucial wins in relegation six-pointers. The fan base is deeply rooted in the local community, with a strong following that travels to support the team across the islands. Naxxar Lions continue to be a classic Maltese football club, representing their town with tenacity and heart in every campaign.
